Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

@angular/common version 8.2.13 represents a minor update to the Angular framework's common utilities library. Released on October 30, 2019, it follows closely on the heels of version 8.2.12, released just a week prior on October 23, 2019. Both versions share the same core description: providing commonly needed directives and services for Angular applications. Developers relying on Angular's ecosystem will find that both versions declare 'tslib' as a dependency and peer dependencies for 'rxjs' and '@angular/core', ensuring compatibility within the broader Angular framework. Notably, the peer dependency for @angular/core shifts from 8.2.12 to 8.2.13 reflecting the intended synchronization between the core Angular package and its common module.

While seemingly similar, the update from 8.2.12 to 8.2.13 likely includes bug fixes and minor improvements. The file count and unpacked size in the dist object remain identical suggesting no major structural changes or expansive feature additions. The most vital point for developers is the updated peer dependency on @angular/core, emphasizing the need to upgrade both packages together to maintain framework consistency. While specific details on bug fixes aren't provided in this structured data, the quick release cadence suggests addressing issues identified post 8.2.12 release. Always check the official Angular changelog for comprehensive details before updating.
